CPU usage increasing over time

hi all, i did some experiment and notice that when i start using my EA, the CPU usage is low in the region of about 5% after running for a few hours, it went up to about 15% on average i read somewhere you need to close your terminal and restart every now and then to optimize it due to the way my ea works, i can't allow the terminal to be closed and on again my questions is, is there a way within an ea to somehow reset something so that the cpu is reduced? btw, i need the data within the memory intact (eg data in arrays) Note : 1 thing i notice...

tq for all the feedback i have managed to reduce the cpu resources by 80% by optimizing my EA code basically what i did was to change checking open order every tick to every new candle

{quote} That ("optimizing" EA code to check open order on new candle instead on every tick) is not going to prevent "after running for a few hours, it went up to about 15% on average" issue. It will only delay it. Oh well : happy coding

{quote} Here's another solution for saving to file... I personally would use CArrayDouble from the std library instead of a C-style array, but this solves for both... //+------------------------------------------------------------------+ //| ArrayToFile.mq4 | //| nicholishen | //| www.reddit.com/u/nicholishenFX | //+------------------------------------------------------------------+ #property copyright "nicholishen" #property link "www.reddit.com/u/nicholishenFX" #property version "1.00" #property strict #include <Arrays\ArrayDouble.mqh> #include...
